Bioinformation Gene Symbol ERO1A Gene Full Name endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase alpha Function Oxidoreductase involved in disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum. Efficiently reoxidizes P4HB/PDI, the enzyme catalyzing protein disulfide formation, in order to allow P4HB to sustain additional rounds of disulfide formation. Following P4HB reoxidation, passes its electrons to molecular oxygen via FAD, leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cell. Required for the proper folding of immunoglobulins. Involved in the release of the unfolded cholera toxin from reduced P4HB/PDI in case of infection by V.cholerae, thereby playing a role in retrotranslocation of the toxin. Plays an important role in ER stress-induced, CHOP-dependent apoptosis by activating the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor IP3R1.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Meroueh*aef The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) offers an unprecedented opportunity to identify small-molecule binding sites on proteins with overexpressed mRNA levels that correlate with poor survival. Here, we analyze RNA-seq and clinical data for 10 tumor types to identify genes that are both overexpressed and correlate with patient survival. Protein products of these genes were scanned for binding sites that possess shape and physicochemical properties that can accommodate small-molecule probes or therapeutic agents (druggable). These binding sites were classified as enzyme active sites (ENZ), protein–protein interaction sites (PPI), or other sites whose function is unknown (OTH). Interestingly, the overwhelming majority of binding sites were classified as OTH. We find that ENZ, PPI, and OTH binding sites often occurred on the same structure suggesting that many of these OTH cavities can be used for allosteric modulation of Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. enzyme activity or protein–protein interactions with small molecules.

  • The Physiological Functions of Mammalian Endoplasmic Oxidoreductin 1: on Disulfides and More
    ANTIOXIDANTS & REDOX SIGNALING Volume 16, Number 10, 2012 FORUM REVIEW ARTICLE ª Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. DOI: 10.1089/ars.2011.4475 The Physiological Functions of Mammalian Endoplasmic Oxidoreductin 1: On Disulfides and More Thomas Ramming and Christian Appenzeller-Herzog Abstract Significance: The oxidative process of disulfide-bond formation is essential for the folding of most secretory and membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It is driven by electron relay pathways that transfer two electrons derived from the fusion of two adjacent cysteinyl side chains onto various types of chemical oxidants. The conserved, ER-resident endoplasmic oxidoreductin 1 (Ero1) sulfhydryl oxidases that reduce molecular oxygen to generate an active-site disulfide represent one of these pathways. In mammals, two family members exist, Ero1a and Ero1b. Recent Advances: The two mammalian Ero1 enzymes differ in transcriptional and post- translational regulation, tissue distribution, and catalytic turnover. A specific protein–protein interaction be- tween either isoform and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) facilitates the propagation of disulfides from Ero1 via PDI to nascent polypeptides, and inbuilt oxidative shutdown mechanisms in Ero1a and Ero1b prevent excessive oxidation of PDI. Critical Issues: Besides disulfide-bond generation, Ero1a also regulates calcium release from the ER and the secretion of disulfide-linked oligomers through its reversible association with the chaperone ERp44. This review explores the functional repertoire and possible redundancy of mammalian Ero1 enzymes. Future Directions: Systematic analyses of different knockout mouse models will be the most promising strategy to shed new light on unique and tissue-specific roles of Ero1a and Ero1b. Moreover, in-depth characterization of the known physical interactions of Ero1 with peroxidases and PDI family members will help broaden our functional and mechanistic understanding of Ero1 enzymes.

  • Recombinant Human ERO1-Like Protein A/ERO1L (C-6His)
    9853 Pacific Heights Blvd. Suite D. San Diego, CA 92121, USA Tel: 858-263-4982 Email: [email protected] 32-7771: Recombinant Human ERO1-Like Protein a/ERO1L (C-6His) Gene : ERO1A Gene ID : 30001 Uniprot ID : Q96HE7 Description Source: Human Cells. MW :53kD. Recombinant Human ERO1L is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu24-His468 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. ERO1-Like Protein a (ERO1L) is an enzyme that belongs to the EROs family. ERO1L is expressed at high level in esophagus and upper digestive tract. ERO1L is an essential oxidoreductase that oxidizes proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum to produce disulfide bonds. ERO1L acts by oxidizing directly P4HB/PDI isomerase through a direct disulfide exchange. It associates with ERP44, demonstrating that it does not oxidize all PDI related proteins and can discriminate between PDI and related proteins. Its reoxidation probably involves electron transfer to molecular oxygen via FAD. ERO1L may be responsible for a significant proportion of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cell. ERO1L responses to temperature stimulus, protein thiol-disulfide exchange, protein folding with or without chaperone cofactor and transport.

  • Roles of Xbp1s in Transcriptional Regulation of Target Genes
    biomedicines Review Roles of XBP1s in Transcriptional Regulation of Target Genes Sung-Min Park , Tae-Il Kang and Jae-Seon So * Department of Medical Biotechnology, Dongguk University, Gyeongju 38066, Gyeongbuk, Korea; [email protected] (S.-M.P.); [email protected] (T.-I.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The spliced form of X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1s) is an active transcription factor that plays a vital role in the unfolded protein response (UPR). Under endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, unspliced Xbp1 mRNA is cleaved by the activated stress sensor IRE1α and converted to the mature form encoding spliced XBP1 (XBP1s). Translated XBP1s migrates to the nucleus and regulates the transcriptional programs of UPR target genes encoding ER molecular chaperones, folding enzymes, and ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) components to decrease ER stress. Moreover, studies have shown that XBP1s regulates the transcription of diverse genes that are involved in lipid and glucose metabolism and immune responses. Therefore, XBP1s has been considered an important therapeutic target in studying various diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. XBP1s is involved in several unique mechanisms to regulate the transcription of different target genes by interacting with other proteins to modulate their activity. Although recent studies discovered numerous target genes of XBP1s via genome-wide analyses, how XBP1s regulates their transcription remains unclear. This review discusses the roles of XBP1s in target genes transcriptional regulation. More in-depth knowledge of XBP1s target genes and transcriptional regulatory mechanisms in the future will help develop new therapeutic targets for each disease.

  • TMX1 Determines Cancer Cell Metabolism As a Thiol- Based Modulator of ER–Mitochondria Ca2+ Flux
    JCB: Article TMX1 determines cancer cell metabolism as a thiol- based modulator of ER–mitochondria Ca2+ flux Arun Raturi,1* Tomás Gutiérrez,1* Carolina Ortiz‑Sandoval,1 Araya Ruangkittisakul,2 Maria Sol Herrera‑Cruz,1 Jeremy P.

Within tumor tissue, mitochondria metabolism is frequently repressed, leading to chemotherapy resistance and increased growth of the tumor mass. Therefore, altered ER–mitochondria Ca2+ flux could be a cancer hallmark, but only a few regulatory proteins of this mechanism are currently known. One candidate is the redox-sensitive oxidoreductase TMX1 that is enriched on the mitochondria-associated membrane (MAM), the site of ER–mitochondria Ca2+ flux. Our findings demonstrate that cancer cells with low TMX1 exhibit increased ER Ca2+, accelerated cytosolic Ca2+ clearance, and re- duced Ca2+ transfer to mitochondria. Thus, low levels of TMX1 reduce ER–mitochondria contacts, shift bioenergetics away from mitochondria, and accelerate tumor growth. For its role in intracellular ER–mitochondria Ca2+ flux, TMX1 requires its thioredoxin motif and palmitoylation to target to the MAM.
